Many harbors in the sailing area. Excellent weather.
Use the correct lines. The lines (sheets and halyards) are thicker than the pulleys allow. This makes hoisting the sail almost impossible, and to lower the sail, you have to help release the halyards at the mast. The mainsheet is the same story. Everything requires a lot of force and requires the winch at slow speed. It's not fun sailing. The bow thruster barely works and has no power. Maintenance on the boat! A drawer is missing, two cupboard doors are loose, and the gas stove with oven is only attached on one side. The engine start-stop button is loose. The engine throttle isn't properly secured to the boat. The lock on the winch handles is worn; the handle can easily be pulled out of the winch. The anchor is severely deformed, resulting in the lack of a proper access step via the pulpit. Help with problems. Halfway through the vacation, the navigation and autopilot stopped working. The owner told us to look for a fuse somewhere in the wiring harness ourselves. This ultimately turned out to be a software issue with incorrect network settings between the devices. Water tanks weren't cleaned. The water smelled stale and had flakes in it. I rinsed the tanks twice myself and bought and added preservative.
